[urgent] MsgBox is non-modal.

[js]

Hi all,

I currently encounter a problem and it is urgent to me.

After calling the MsgBox.Show(), the message box is shown with non-modal
mode, what is the possible reason??? This only happen in the VB project,
works fine in C# project.

SystemModal and ApplicationModal MsgBoxStyle were all tried and there
was no help.

Please show the code and circumstances. The default behavior of
MessageBox.Show() is to produce an application model message box, IME. I
also tested MsgBox() without incident. It, too, seems to default to
application modal.

A similiar thread with more details was posted under
....dotnet.framework.winform group, below contains some useful information
that may help.

I also made a very simple usercontrol which could produce the problem,
please let me know if you need it.

I have put the question in as a possible bug.
Will post back as soon as I have some info for you.
I have seen other issues posted about the valuechanged event and msgbox.

Julie,

Yes, only the DateTimePicker has the issue. The reason I just choose
this control is I was constructing a custom dropdown control which I believe
has the similar window relationship as the DateTimePicker control. My
customer reported the non-modal problem to me and I immediately checked the
DateTimePicker, "luckily" it has the same problem.

I was trying to work around it but with no result, whatever both the
MsgBoxStyle.SystemModal and the MsgBoxStyle.ApplicationModal do not take
effect in this scenario. I have no idea whether this is a bug in the .NET
Framework.

Any .NET MVP could help?
